Pupils have experienced a significant improvement in their education over the past two years. Staff hold consistently high expectations for every pupil. Pupils are keen to live up to the school’s values, for instance by showing commitment to their learning. The school is adamant that special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) should not be a barrier to success. These high expectations are supporting pupils to achieve strongly. Children in early years settle in quickly. Staff provide clear and consistent routines to help children understand what is expected as they learn and play. This helps to create a secure foundation for positive behaviour throughout the school. Behaviour in classrooms is calm and focused. Pupils share the playground spaces with one another well. Pupils develop a sense of pride in their school community. They embrace opportunities to represent their school in sporting fixtures and debating competitions. Pupils enjoy taking part in community events such as bake sales and the fireworks display. Through the ‘pupil parliament’, they feel that they have a voice in the future of their school. Staff demonstrate the kind and respectful interactions that they encourage amongst pupils. Pupils know that they can always talk to staff about any worries or concerns.
